Here at the blog, we’re all about you. Okay, sometimes me, and on occasion somebody else, but mostly you… okay mostly me. But it’s my blog!
Where was I?
Oh yeah. We like to offer helpful writer-type ideas here to improve your writing and, once done, improve your ability to show off that writing to others!
I recently found another great blog post full of helpful ideas to increase your platform! You’ll see a few things we’ve discussed here before, but I hope you’ll get a few new ideas, too.
I’m especially intrigued about blog parties. Have you ever done one of those? Maybe you’d like to talk about your experience doing it. Let me know!
Meanwhile, enjoy Suzie Speaks’ post! Her numbers are good, so she’s doing a few things right!

Suzie’s awesome, isn’t she? This sounds like good common-sense advice.
I went to like the post on her blog, and then realized I’d apparently already liked it some time ago. I guess it’s good to know I’m consistent, at least. 😛
It was so good, you liked it twice. I see no issue with that.
Lots of great points there. I need to go through my posts and add a bunch of tags.
Somebody – maybe you – told me to add tags to my posts about ten months ago. I think I started last month. Going back and adding them to old posts sounds like a project for a rainy day. It doesn’t take long, though, and if I just did the ones that WP shows as related to whatever I posted for the day, it probably wouldn’t take much time to do. Two a day…
I might have said that. I’ve always added a couple, but this says up to twenty for search engine purposes. Makes sense.
I read that, and I also recently read that over 10 flags the post somehow – probably as a SEO whore – so I’ve been keeping mine to 9 or 10.
Probably using better tag terms is the key, though, which we could easily grab from more popular bloggers and use. Mine are almost all generic.
That sounds like a good guest post. “Tags, what they are, what to do with them, which to use.”
The GOOD tags.
Wonderful advice! Thank you for sharing Dan! You always shared great posts from others.
Thanks for being such a great friend of the blog, Kally!
Great post, thank you!

Thanks so much for sharing my post Dan! If you’re interested in blog parties I’m having one this Saturday for Haloween… You’re very welcome to come along and share a link or three – being some nibbles with you!
Halloween… Hate it when my phone autocorrects to the wrong spelling!!!
I can edit your comments but that’s too good to edit! We like our heroes human and fallible
Okay here’s what we’ll do. You send me a reminder or a notice or whatever, and I’ll share it here so everybody can attend – if that’s cool. I believe the best way to learn how to do these things is to attend them first.
Thanks! Shoot me any relevant info at the Contact Me button.
And thanks for being a great blogger!
